That's the real reason why you aren't burning any fat ! - 1 minute read
Even if you're snacking on carrot sticks...
Having a giant salad full of veggies for lunch..
Or a plant-based black bean burger for dinner…
They all BLOCK AMPk from being released, so you're not burning any fat.
As I mentioned before…
Fructans are made up of fructose polymers.
Fructose is a special type of sugar that has to be processed and stored in the liver.
Which means it can kick you out of fat-burning in seconds.
While you can store hundreds of grams of sugar in your muscles…
You can only store 30-50 grams in your liver.
If you eat more than that…
And just to be clear, the average American eats over 300 grams per day…
Because there's no more room in your liver…
The rest just "spills over" and ends up in your fat cells.
Think of it like this…
If you fill your car up with gas…
And you just let it run…
The gas will eventually overflow and spill all over the ground.
It's the same thing with extra fructose in your body…
Except it spills into your fat cells.
